The tarpon fishing over he past few weeks has been just awesome. Lots of big fish floating around and lots of exciting eats. These fish are so strong and powerful and so much fun on fly and light tackle. A lot of the times when throwing spin gear, getting the bite and a few jumps…
Three years ago in 2012 the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission created a drastic yet beneficial measure that guaranteed the robust population of Centropomus undecimalis, colloquially known as Snook, off the coast of the Gulf of Mexico and the Atlantic Ocean.
